when you disclose stuttering and then don’t stutter at all This is just funny. Does this happen to anyone else? Sometimes I do like to explain at the start of a conversation that I stutter, but then after going through that whole exchange, sometimes I proceed to not stutter AT ALL, and I’m left in the strange position of feeling awkward about being too fluent, like I owe the person some stuttering after having them listen to my awkward little explanation about it. Anyone else???
